Been there, done that, the script is causing sendmail to print out an 
error message and the server is reading it before it reads the cgi's
headers....make sure the script is adding -t to sendmail, and 
you might add a line to the script to flush it's output after writing
the Content-type: line...then you won't get the wrap error and can see
what's happening....
